Brenton’s Septuagint (1851), English

Thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not go up, neither shall ye fight with your brethren the sons of Israel: return each man to his own home; for this thing is from me; and they hearkened to the word of the Lord, and they ceased from going up, according to the word of the Lord. a So king Solomon sleeps with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David; and Roboam his son reigned in his stead in Jerusalem, being sixteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twelve years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Naanan, daughter of Ana son of Naas king of the children of Ammon. And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked not in the way of David his father. b And there was a man of mount Ephraim, a servant to Solomon, and his name was Jeroboam; and the name of his mother was Sarira, a harlot; and Solomon made him head of the levies of the house of Joseph: and he built for Solomon Sarira in mount Ephraim; and he had three hundred chariots of horses: he built the citadel with the levies of the house of Ephraim; he fortified the city of David, and aspired to the kingdom. c And Solomon sought to kill him; and he was afraid, and escaped to Susakim king of Egypt, and was with him until Solomon died. d And Jeroboam heard in Egypt that Solomon was dead; and he spoke in the ears of Susakim king of Egypt, saying, Let me go, and I will depart into my land; and Susakim said to him, Ask any request, and I will grant it thee. e And Susakim gave to Jeroboam Ano the eldest sister of Thekemina his wife, to be his wife: she was great among the daughters of the king, and she bore to Jeroboam Abia his son: f and Jeroboam said to Susakim, Let me indeed go, and I will depart. And Jeroboam departed out of Egypt, and came into the land of Sarira that was in mount Ephraim, and thither the whole tribe of Ephraim assembles, and Jeroboam built a fortress there. g And his young child was sick with a very severe sickness; and Jeroboam went to enquire concerning the child: and he said to Ano his wife, Arise, go, enquire of God concerning the child, whether he shall recover from his sickness. h Now there was a man in Selom, and his name was Achia: and he was sixty years old, and the word of the Lord was with him. And Jeroboam said to his wife, Arise, and take in thine hand loaves for the man of God, and cakes for his children, and grapes, and a pot of honey. i And the woman arose, and took in her hand bread, and two cakes, and grapes, and a pot of honey, for Achia: and the man was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see. k And she arose up from Sarira and went; and it came to pass when she had come into the city to Achia the Selonite, that Achia said to his servant, Go out now to meet Ano the wife of Jeroboam, and thou shalt say to her, Come in, and stand not still : for thus saith the Lord, I send grievous tidings to thee. l And Ano went in to the man of God; and Achia said to her, Why hast thou brought me bread and grapes, and cakes, and a pot of honey? Thus saith the Lord, Behold, thou shalt depart from me, and it shall come to pass when thou hast entered into the city, even into Sarira, that thy maidens shall come out to meet thee, and shall say to thee, The child is dead: m for thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will destroy every male of Jeroboam, and there shall be the dead of Jeroboam in the city, them the dogs shall eat, and him that has died in the field shall the birds of the air eat, and he shall lament for the child, saying , Woe is me , Lord! for there has been found in him some good thing touching the Lord. n And the woman departed, when she heard this: and it came to pass as she entered into Sarira, that the child died; and there came forth a wailing to meet her . And Jeroboam went to Sikima in mount Ephraim, and assembled there the tribes of Israel; and Roboam the son of Solomon went up thither. o And the word of the Lord came to Samaias son of Enlami, saying, Take to thyself a new garment which has not gone into the water, and rend it into twelve pieces; and thou shalt give some to Jeroboam, and shalt say to him, Thus saith the Lord, Take to thyself ten pieces to cover thee: and Jeroboam took them : and Samaias said, Thus saith the Lord concerning the ten tribes of Israel. p And the people said to Roboam the son of Solomon, Thy father made his yoke heavy upon us, and made the meat of his table heavy; and now thou shalt lighten them upon us, and we will serve thee. q And Roboam said to the people, Wait three days, and I will return you an answer: and Roboam said, Bring in to me the elders, and I will take counsel with them what I shall answer to the people on the third day. So Roboam spoke in their ears, as the people sent to him to say : and the elders of the people said, Thus the people have spoken to thee. r And Roboam rejected their counsel, and it pleased him not: and he sent and brought in those who had been brought up with him; and he said to them, Thus and thus has the people sent to me to say: and they that had been brought up with him said, Thus shalt thou speak to the people, saying, My little finger shall be thicker than my father's loins; my father scourged you with whips, but I will rule you with scorpions. s And the saying pleased Roboam, and he answered the people as the young men, they that were brought up with him, counselled him: t and all the people spoke as one man, every one to his neighbour, and they cried out all together, saying, We have no part in David, nor inheritance in the son of Jessæ: to thy tents, O Israel, every one; for this man is not for a prince or a ruler over us. u And all the people was dispersed from Sikima, and they departed every one to his tent: and Roboam strengthened himself and departed, and mounted his chariot, and entered into Jerusalem: and there follow him the whole tribe of Juda, and the whole tribe of Benjamin. x And it came to pass at the beginning of the year, that Roboam gathered all the men of Juda and Benjamin, and went up to fight with Jeroboam at Sikima. y And the word of the Lord came to Samæas the man of God, saying, Speak to Roboam king of Juda, and to all the house of Juda and Benjamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying, Thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not go up, neither shall ye fight with your brethren the sons of Israel: return every man to his house, for this thing is from me. z And they hearkened to the word of the Lord, and forbore to go up, according to the word of the Lord.

τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἰδοὺ σὺ ἀπελεύσῃ ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ, καὶ ἔσται εἰσελθούσης σου τὴν πόλιν εἰς Σαριρὰ, καὶ τὰ κοράσιά σου ἐξλεύσονταί σοι εἰς συνάντησιν, καὶ ἐροῦσί σοι, τὸ παιδάριον τέθνηκεν· m ὅτι τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐξολοθρεύσω τοῦ Ἱεροβοὰμ οὐροῦντα πρὸς τοῖχον, καὶ ἔσονται οἱ τεθνηκότες τοῦ Ἱεροβοὰμ ἐν τῇ πόλει, καταφάγονται οἱ κύνες, καὶ τὸν τεθνηκότα ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ καταφάγεται τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ τὸ παιδάριον κόψεται, οὐαὶ κύριε, ὅτι εὑρέθη ἐν αὐτῷ ῥῆμα καλὸν περὶ τοῦ Κυρίου· n Καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἡ γυνὴ, ὡς ἤκουσε· καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν Σαριρὰ, καὶ τὸ παιδάριον ἀπέθανε· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἡ κραυγὴ εἰς ἀπαντήν· καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἱεροβοὰμ εἰς Σίκιμα τὴν ἐν ὄρει Ἐφραὶμ, καὶ συνήθροισεν ἐκεῖ τὰς φυλὰς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἀνέβη ἐκεῖ Ῥοβοὰμ υἱὸς Σαλωμών· o καὶ λόγος Κυρίου ἐγένετο πρὸς Σαμαίαν τὸν Ἐνλαμὶ, λέγων, λάβε σεαυτῷ ἱμάτιον καινὸν τὸ οὐκ εἰσεληλυθὸς εἰς ὕδωρ, καὶ ῥῆξον αὐτὸ δώδεκα ῥήγματα, καὶ δώσεις τῷ Ἱεροβοὰμ, καὶ ἐρεῖς αὐτῷ, τάδε λέγει Κύριος, λάβε σεαυτῷ δέκα ῥήγματα τοῦ περιβαλέσθαι σε· καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἱεροβοάμ· καὶ εἶπε Σαμαίας, τάδε λέγει Κύριος ἐπὶ τὰς δέκα φυλὰς τοῦ Ἰσραήλ. p Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Ῥοβοὰμ υἱὸν Σαλωμὼν, ὁ πατήρ σου ἐβάρυνε τὸν κλοιὸν αὐτοῦ ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς, καὶ ἐβάρυνε τὰ βρώματα τῆς τραπέζης αὐτοῦ· καὶ νῦν κουφιεῖς ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς, καὶ δουλεύσομέν σοι· q καὶ εἶπε Ῥοβοὰμ πρὸς τὸν λαὸν, ἔτι τριῶν ἡμερῶν, καὶ ἀποκριθήσομαι ὑμῖν ῥῆμα· καὶ εἶπε Ῥοβοὰμ, εἰσαγάγετέ μοι τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους, καὶ συμβουλεύσομαι μετʼ αὐτῶν τί ἀποκριθῶ τῷ λαῷ ῥῆμα ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ· Καὶ ἐλάλησε Ῥοβοὰμ εἰς τὰ ὦτα αὐτῶν, καθὼς ἀπέστειλεν ὁ λαὸς πρὸς αὐτόν· καὶ εἶπον οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τοῦ λαοῦ, οὕτως ἐλάλησε πρὸς σὲ ὁ λαός· r Καὶ διεσκέδασε Ῥοβοὰμ τὴν βουλὴν αὐτῶν, καὶ οὐκ ἤρεσεν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἀπέστειλε, καὶ εἰσήγαγε τοὺς συντρόφους αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτοῖς, ταῦτα καὶ ταῦτα ἀπέσταλκεν ὁ λαὸς πρὸς μὲ, λέγων· καὶ εἶπαν οἱ σύντροφοι αὐτοῦ, οὕτως λαλήσεις πρὸς τὸν λαὸν, λέγων, ἡ μικρότης μου παχυτέρα ὑπὲρ τὴν ὀσφῦν τοῦ πατρός μου· ὁ πατήρ μου ἐμαστίγου ὑμᾶς μάστιξιν, ἐγὼ δὲ κατάρξω ὑμᾶς ἐν σκορπίοις. s Καὶ ἤρεσε τὸ ῥῆμα ἐνώπιον Ῥοβοάμ· καὶ ἀπεκρίθη τῷ λαῷ, καθὼς συνεβούλευσαν αὐτῷ οἱ σύντροφοι αὐτοῦ τὰ παιδάρια· t καὶ εἶπε πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ὡς ἀνὴρ εἷς ἕκαστος τῷ πλησίον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀνέκραξαν ἅπαντες, λέγοντες, οὐ μερὶς ἡμῖν ἐν Δαυὶδ, οὐδὲ κληρονομία ἐν υἱῷ Ἰεσσαί· ἕκαστος εἰς τὰ σκηνώματά σου Ἰσραὴλ, ὅτι ὁ ἄνθρωπος οὗτος οὐκ εἰς ἄρχοντα οὐδὲ εἰς ἡγούμενον· u καὶ διεσπάρη πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἐκ Σικίμων, καὶ ἀπῆλθον ἕκαστος εἰς τὸ σκήνωμα αὐτοῦ· Καὶ κατεκράτησε Ῥοβοὰμ, καὶ ἀπῆλθε, καὶ ἀνέβη ἐπὶ τὸ ἅρμα αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ· καὶ πορεύονται ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ πᾶν σκῆπτρον Ἰούδα, καὶ πᾶν σκῆπτρον Βενιαμίν. x Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐνισταμένου τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ, καὶ συνήθροισε Ῥοβοὰμ πάντα ἄνδρα Ἰούδα καὶ Βενιαμὶν, καὶ ἀνέβη τοῦ πολεμεῖν πρὸς Ἱεροβοὰμ εἰς Σίκιμα· y καὶ ἐγένετο ῥῆμα Κυρίου πρὸς Σαμαίαν ἄνθρωπον τοῦ Θεοῦ, λέγων, εἶπον τῷ Ῥοβοὰμ βασιλεῖ Ἰούδα, καὶ πρὸς πάντα οἶκον Ἰούδα καὶ Βενιαμὶν, καὶ πρὸς τὸ κατάλειμμα τοῦ λαοῦ, λέγων, τάδε λέγει Κύριος, οὐκ ἀναβήσεσθε οὐδὲ πολεμήσετε πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς ὑμῶν υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ, ἀναστρέφετε ἕκαστος εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ, ὅτι παρʼ ἐμοῦ γέγονε τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο· z καὶ ἤκουσαν τοῦ λόγου Κυρίου, καὶ ἀνέσχον μὴ πορευθῆναι κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα Κυρίου.
